"Digging up 20+ year old Mo Letters probably isn't going to be any more effective now than it was when they were first published. Now, if a victim like Davidito would file a complaint, then he's got photographic evidence, at least against the woman identified in the photos."

If the focus is bringing charges for sexual abuse, yes, you are probably right. If the purpose is to expose TF, uncover its cover-ups, blacken its white-washing, to prove there was pattern, then those Mo Letters and photos come in very handy. It's a double-edged sword. They can be used both against perpertrators, and also as a way for them to establish for their own defense that there was a pattern being encouraged from the top.
